BuddyPress Activity Tracking Limited
Hello-
Great plugin. It's doing good work helping me understand what users are doing in the admin, but it's not meeting my expectations (which could be too extreme) with regard to BuddyPress. I expected it track when people posted new updates (much like how BuddyPress natively does this in the admin), but this isn't the case. It's getting when updates are deleted, but not initially posted.
I thought the reason for this was because I'm using a multi-network install, where users technically aren't users of the site–they're users of the network (kind of hard to explain in text). So, I attached a user as a subscriber to the site, but that didn't trigger anything. Also, it doesn't capture my own updates.
Looking forward, I hope you add an export feature (preferably to CSV or Excel) to do some data analysis outside of WP, or create a data dashboard to view activity.
Great plugin. Best of luck with future versions, and thanks for reading my support post. I'm happy to create a screencast showing everything if need be.

Hi I am experiencing the same problem and I am not using a Multisite. What to do to manage the problem?
Currently BuddyPress only tracks events which occur in the back end. This needs to be changed so that it works in the same way as comments, tracking events which write to the database but occur on the front end.
I'm not that familiar with BuddyPress, so if anyone would like to help out in this area, that would be greatly appreciated.
@kasparsd @derekherman while we do have connectors supporting many plugins, what is the process for adding a plugin for a particular connector? Obviously we cannot add a connector for every plugin, so some clarification on which plugins we want to natively support could clear up discussion on supporting other third-party plugins.
